FURNITURE FASHIONS.
The Changes that Come In Every Five
Years.

Fashions in furniture change with as much
regularity, though not with as much frequen-
cy, as the styles in hats and bonnets, says a
writer to the New York Mail and Express.
1t Is probable that if it were as easy to dis
card an old suit of furniture and procure
new one as it is for those who have the
means to order new dress, our houses
would never wear a homelike or familiar
look, for no sooner would we become ac-
quainted with the vagaries of the chairs, bu-
reaus and other articles of furniture, and
each angle and protuberance be so well known
that they could be avoided in the dark, than
we would have to accustom ourselves to
new arrangement and map out new chart.
AS 1t is, suit of furniture which five or six
years ago held leading position in fashion

date' 1t requires about five years for the ac-
compiishment of a complete evolution in

Work Of the Steamer Minia In Hunt
Ing the Ocean Bottom.

Submarine telegraphy differs from land te-
legraphy in many things says writer to the
Boston Globe. We are all familiar with the
method Of stringing wires along rows of bar
ren poles beside railroads or highways, or
over the roofs of houses in the cities, and we
have all occasionally seen linemen, belted
and booted and armed with peculiar steel
spurs to aid them in climbingpoles to repair
the wires, but it is not a frequent privilege
to be able to board a steamer whose sole oc-
cupation Is to repair the telegraph lines
which form an invisible but never idle means
of communication with the countries of
Europe.
A prominent object in the harbor of Bos-
ton during the past few days has been the
steamship Nina. She is three-masted yes
sci standing high in the water, and her black
sides and tall yellow smoke-stack, together
with the strange machinery and anchors at
her bow, and the enormous black buoys
hanging at davits over her sides and mar
sballed on her deck, make her an object of
curiosity on the part of all on board of pass
ing vessels or on the more distant wharves
of the city.
The Nina was built at Glasgow in 1866 for
service between English and Egyptian ports
and intermediate points on the sMediterra-
mean. Sne has been employed upon her
present work some twelve or fifteen years.
but this is her first visit to Boston. Her
length is $50 feet, beam 80 feet, and depth 25
feet. She is OF 1886 gross tonnage and her
engine is of 200 horse power. She is built of
iron, wooden sheathed to protect her from
the ice which she frequently has to encount-
er Captain Trott and ten officers, including
an electrician, assistant electrician and cable
engineer, and nearly eighty in the crew,
comprise her present complement of men.
So much for the vessel.
So perfect is the insulation of ocean cables
that very much weaker current of cleo
tricity will serve for telegraphing than upon
shore lines Owing to the same cause,
break In the cable can befound with greater
readiness. BY galvanometer the position
OF such a break can generally be found with
in distance of two or three miles.
what is the longest time that you ever
had to spend searching for broken cable?"
was asked of an officer of the Nina.
1T takes, of course, longer in stormy
weather than when the sea is reasonably
smooth" replied The officer ''ln good
weather, ii we don't find the break the first
day of searching we think luck Is against
u.s."
At her station at Halifax the officers of the
Minia receive notice of a break and its latl-
tude and longitude. The steamer then
promptly puts to sea TO perform the work OF
an ocean lineman. She is equipped with
grapnels, buoys, batteries, galvanometers,
signalling instruments, and an array OF elee-
trical apparatus that would puzzle any one
but an expert. OF course, q supply Of cable
is also carried, to be used In repairing the
break when found.

CONSERVATION Among Rumsellers.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., April "A sensation
was created in the Court of Common Pleas
this morning by the sudden arraignment of
retail liquor dealers, whoEwere brought be-
fore the bar on writs Of capias to be SEN
tcnced. When the cases of these men came
up before the court last term, they pleaded
nol0 contendere by direction of their counsel,
the understanding being that they were not
to continue in business and that they would
be liable at any memeDt to be called in and
take sentence. The term came to an end and
none Of them were disturbed, although there
was ample time for them to have been SEN
fenced. gone to Jail and served their time be-
fore the present term began. James Lovelle
and John Schemminge of this city were the
first called to the bar. Assistant Attorney
General Angel moved for sentence, where
upon John Al. Brennan, their counsel, en-
tered an objection, claiming that the authori-
ties had acted arbitrarily and unjustly and
in way well calculated to disfranchise his
clients and prevent their voting at the COM
ing election. Further than this, the State
intended, without giving warning to the
men, to prevent them from making any busi-
ness arrangement or providing for their fam
lilies. He boldly charged that the bringing in
of the men on capiases was wholly political
movement, and it did not originate with the
chief Of police of Providence. Any amount
of ball was offered, but the prosecution de-
manded sentence, and the two men were SEN
fenced to 80 days in jail and to pay 800 fine
and costs. Others followed this afternoon, and
the men for whom capiases have been issued
are reported to be fleeing the city right and
left.

FATAL BLuNDER.
A Whole Family Poisoned by Wine Of
Coichicum.

LEWISTON, April 2.-Mr. L. DcSaulnier,
the organlst of st. Peters church, died this
morning from taking wine of colchicum.
sold him at drug store by mistake. The
proprietor and clerk were absent and the ar
ticle was given by person temporarily in
charge. A coroner's inquest was held and
DIR. Motto testified that he was called Tues

bottle Of port wine and one of colchicum

The eoroner's inquest finished with evi-
dence for the government tonight. No ad-
ditionaf facts were developed. Dr. Lefarge,
who sold the whiskey, was examined and
then placed under arrest. The claim of the
defence is that he furnished the whiskey OH
the urgent request of DeSaulnier, who told
him where McGraw kept it. He mistook the
bottle containing wine of colchicuin for one
containing port with which he intended to
fill the bottle. The inquest was adjourned
to Monday 1850

TERRIBLE CRASH.
Collision on the Michigan Central
TWO Men Killed.

ST. THOMAS, Ont, April "A collision
occurred on the Michigan Central railroad
today near Springfield, and eight miles from
here. resulting in the death of Brakemen
John Odburt and George Burnham. The
east bound train collided with the west
bound freight, running twenty miles an
hour. The west-b0und train got an order at
Tilscnbury to meet the east-bound train at
Springfield, and Operator Brown at Spring
field received orders from the train des-
patcher to hold the east-bound train till the
west-bound arrived. The operator failed to
put out his signal, and the east-bound train
passed Springfield at the rate of 20 miles an
hour. The two trains met with terrible
crash. Engineer Vail and his fireman
jumped in time to save their lives, as did
Engineer Van Houghton and his fireman,
but Brakeman Odburt went down with the
wreck, and his body has not yet been re-
covered; Brakeman Burnham also went
down with the wreck, and was so terribly
injured that he died at noon. The wreck
was most complete. Twenty-six cars and
two engines are broken into splinters
and piled up ON the track 45 feet high. A
wrecking train with a large gang of men are
at work, but it will be As hours before the
track is cleared.
